Miguel Sano Could See Time At Both Corner Infield Spots

Minnesota Twins first baseman Miguel Sano could also see some time at the hot corner this year. Sano was originally a third baseman by trade, though the team shifted him to first when they signed Josh Donaldson last offseason. The 27-year-old could get some starts at third with the team planning to rest Donaldson more […]

Alex Kirilloff Getting Reps At First Base

Minnesota Twins outfielder Alex Kirilloff has been getting repetitions at first base during camp. Kirilloff played at first growing up and seemingly would increase his chances of making the Opening Day roster with added positional versatility, as he can also play both corner outfield spots. The 23-year-old made his major league debut in the playoffs […]

Luke Voit Looking To Walk More In 2021

New York Yankees first baseman Luke Voit said that he's focusing on increasing his walk rate for the 2021 season on Thursday. Voit's 7.3% walk rate from last season was one of the only (relative) holes in his game as he led the league in home runs and posted a .948 OPS, and his suppressed […]

Mickey Moniak A Possibility For Job In Center Field

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Mickey Moniak shouldn't be ruled out for the starting job in center field with manager Joe Girardi saying, "I think if you're in camp, you're in the mix," according to MLB.com's Todd Zolecki. The starting center field job in Philadelphia is wide open with Adam Haseley, Roman Quinn, Scott Kingery, and even […]

Blue Jays Add Pitching Depth With Tommy Milone

Left-hander Tommy Milone signed a minor league contract with the Toronto Blue Jays on Thursday that included an invitation to spring training. The move gives Toronto some veteran starting depth or a possible long-man for the bullpen. The club also recently signed fellow southpaw Francisco Liriano. Milone hasn't been fantasy relevant for some time although […]

Jairzinho Rozenstruik Headlines Saturday's Card

Known for delivering a huge punch, Jairzinho Rozenstruik (11-1) enters Saturday's main event in need of a huge win to keep pace with Derrick Lewis' big knockout on last weekend's Saturday event.

Ciryl Gane Can Take Another Step Closer To Title Shot

Undefeated in his young career, French striker Ciryl Gane (7-0) enters Saturday's main event in need of a huge victory if he wants to stay neck-and-neck with Derrick Lewis after his huge knockout last weekend.

That's a lofty goal coming off the pandemic-shortened […]

Nikita Krylov Is Saturday's Biggest Underdog

Nikita Krylov (27-7) enters Saturday's co-main-event showdown with a 2-2 record during his second stint with the UFC.

Magomed Ankalaev Enters Saturday As A Big Favorite

On a five-fight winning streak since losing his debut on a last-second triangle choke, Magomed Ankalaev (14-1) is set for Saturday's co-main event against another tough opponent in Nikita Krylov. Ankalaev has shown himself to be a dangerous striker, with eight of his 14 career wins coming by knockout/TKO. His last three wins have all […]

Montana De La Rosa In Need Of A Win

Montana De La Rosa (11-6) has flip-flopped wins and losses in her last four bouts and needs a win on Saturday to avoid a two-fight losing streak. With nine of her 11 wins coming by submission, she faces a similar foe that has used submissions for the majority of her wins as well. It's going […]

Zack Wheeler Feels Good After Fingernail Surgery

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Zack Wheeler said he feels 100 percent healthy after throwing bullpen sessions in Spring Training. Wheeler ripped a fingernail on his pitching hand last September that caused him to miss a start. This is the second time in his career Wheeler had this surgery and said it is not affecting him […]

Mayra Bueno Silva Looks To Continue Impressive UFC Run

Mayra Bueno Silva (7-1) came onto the UFC scene strong in 2018, winning her Contender Series matchup with a ninja choke and securing another victory in her debut against Gillian Robertson.

EPL Betting Picks for Matchweek 26: English Premier League Part 1

Last week was a goose egg. Southampton hit the woodwork to deny us the pick and a Chelsea goal would've seen as bag the pick and correct score. It was the same story for Sheffield United who needed a goal to bag us the pick and correct score. And West Brom was denied a clear […]

New York Mets right-handed pitching prospect Matthew Allan has been working with Jacob deGrom during the early part of spring training.

Corey Linsley Doesn't Expect To Be Back

Green Bay Packers impending free-agent center Corey Linsley said that he feels his departure is coming in free agency. "We're not closing the door for anything," Linsley said. "Obviously we'd never do that for any team, especially the Packers, but yeah it definitely feels weird. Looks like all signs are pointing towards snapping the ball […]

Texans Still Unwilling To Talk Deshaun Watson Trade

The Houston Texans remain unwilling to talk about quarterback Deshaun Watson with other teams, with some clubs resorting to leaving voicemails with their trade offers, according to sources. Watson spoke with head coach David Culley recently, but the two have yet to meet in person. The 25-year-old franchise signal-caller hasn't backed off his demands to […]

Bears Re-Sign Ryan Nall

The Chicago Bears re-signed running back Ryan Nall to an undisclosed deal on Thursday. In his second season with the Bears in 2020, Nall had 67 yards and a touchdown on just 11 touches (three carries, eight receptions) in 16 games. He was scheduled to become a restricted free agent next month, but he'll remain […]

Titans Shopping Isaiah Wilson

The Tennessee Titans have shopped first-round offensive tackle Isaiah Wilson this offseason, according to sources.

FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (2/25/21): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

We have a modest six-game slate, a fairly typical size for a Thursday night. The less-than-ideal aspect of the ledger for DFS purposes is that it tilts more toward non-competitive matchups that could lead to some star players seeing less than a full allotment of minutes. A couple of the best defensive teams in the […]

Kevin Cash Raving About Austin Meadows

Tampa Bay Rays manager Kevin Cash continues to rave about outfielder Austin Meadows and how he looks really good after dropping weight in the offseason.
